To us REAL fans, there's no better feeling than winning competitions. Getting to a final is next. Then a top 6 finish or semi-final appearance. Then I suppose the derby counts as the most important league fixture.

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.

Quite sad, really! :lol:

SPOT ON!

cant see what mattersons on about watched the game twice now , once live and once on sky and didnt see the offence once, nor did i hear the commentary team mention it, sounds like a large case of sour grapes to me.

Grapple maybe not but the 1, maybe 1.5 secs that Hudds had to set defence was crucial to their result last night. In addition the speed of the line in defence created the basis of a great performance.

Hudds pushed the boundaries of the game and benefited, good on them, but I for one would not like to see it week in week out, we'd have far fewer quality games like last night was.

Even thought we lost that was great entertainment for the money.

Oh the irony. Last nights game was quality and exciting because Castleford were the only team playing. Huddersfield did not turn up and therefore the excitement was only down to one team.

if you want to talk about pushing boundaries what about the constant offsides by Cas. Go back and watch the game again on Sky. in the last 10 minutes westerman was so far offside i thought that Cas were playing Keith senior.

all teams push the boundaries some do it better than others ie Saints and Leeds and some do different things. there were NO grapple tackles last night. there was lots of poor technique from both teams ( actually there are very few good tacklers in SL 95 % of tackles seem to be between chest and neck)

Huddersfield have for a number of years now been a very physical side and I defy anyone to say a team wont try to slow the PTB down if they can.

Sure the Giants were physical in the tackle and they did slow can down but why wouldnt they? Gansons job is to keep it fair so the onus is on him not Huddersfield.

Well done Giants, effort not execution got you the win and thats never a bad thing.

Sorry to be all tit for tat here, but where i was stood we were inline of the Hudds defence for a long time when we were on your line in the second half, in the 2 sets of six i actually took notice of, at least 4 and even has high as 7 were offside and well offside aswell, i know you won, and deserved but how can you complain about us being offside when you were by far the worst culprits i have seen all season... although it didnt help the topuch judges being stood in the wrong position.

and YES there were a hell of alot of grapple tackles last night, four a row in the second half from whichever Hudds players were involved, maybe we wern't angels either, i wasn't watching for us doing it, but to say there wern't any is completly and utterly wrong.

as i said seen it twice watching it live you miss things , but watching again on tv i for one didnt see any grapple tackles by either side, also none of the 15 penalties the giants conceded were for grapple tackles, yes the previous week against hull we were penalised for some, but on watching again hull were doing the same.
